Jason Momoa has got a whole new look — and he’s not the biggest fan of it.
In a joint Instagram video post with his company Mananalu Water, Momoa could be seen carefully shaving off his beard with a razor while he stood outside.
“Goddammit, I hate it,” he said, looking at the finished result.
The “Aquaman” star revealed he was shaving off his beard for the first time in six years as part of the preparation for his upcoming return to the “Dune” franchise.
“This is the kickoff, ‘Dune 3,’” he said, before referencing “Dune” director Denis Villeneuve by saying, “Only for you, Denis.”
During an March 31 appearance on "TODAY," Momoa revealed he would reprise his role as the clean-shaven Duncan Idaho, a swordmaster of House Atreides and mentor to Timothée Chalamet’s Paul Atreides, in “Dune: Part Three.” Momoa’s character was killed off in 2021’s “Dune,” and did not return in the 2024 sequel.
When asked if he would return in the same way as depicted in Frank Herbert’s six-part “Dune” book series, which shows Duncan Idaho resurrected in the form of a clone, Momoa did not offer much insight.
“Well, I’m not sure if I’m going to get in trouble or not, but it’s the same thing like ‘Game of Thrones’, you know what I mean?” Momoa said. “If you didn’t read the books, it’s not my fault, right? Yeah, there’s going to be … I’m going to be coming back.”
While “Dune” fans will have to wait until Dec. 2026 to see Momoa’s official return to the franchise, they did not hold back their thoughts on his new clean-shaven look in the comment section of his post.
“Am I the only one who likes ‘no beard’ ??” one person wrote.
Another said, “Great you look so handsome omg Jason why do you hide your beautiful face."
Some fans begged to differ, with one sharing three simple words about his beardless look: “Put it back.”
And another weighed in, writing, “I like you better with a beard, you look more mature and serious. But work is work. And if you have to shave for the shoot, that’s OK too. Without a beard, you look young and daring.”
The last time Momoa was seen shaving off his beard was in 2019 when he did a YouTube video to try and get people to “switch to INFINITELY RECYCLABLE aluminum.”
“Let’s make a positive change for the health of our planet. Let’s clean up our oceans and our land. Join me on this journey. Let’s make a switch to INFINITELY RECYCLABLE aluminum. Water in cans, NOT plastic,” he said.
